John: [flipping through book] What, you're allowed to look at everyone else-take our pictures- and we're not allowed see you?

[pause]

John: Seems like you want to run away.

Sarah: Just be happy when I can get out of here.

John: I don't know - been to alot of places...

Sarah: You don't have to give me that "there's no place like home" speech, I've heard it.

John: No, No - You can go wherever you want. See whatever you want to, but, um... a place is only as good as the people you know in it. I... I think this is a pretty good place.

Sam: My entire childhood has been an episode of X-files. You know what's it's like to feel something so strong, and everyday you keep telling yourself your Dad's gonna come back and take you away from this shithole? And that everything that we believed in was true, and that we're not crazy. Please.

[after Mark James has introduced himself to John, and hassled Sam. John hands Sam his skateboard, which has skidded across the floor]

Sam: Thanks. Gotta love the classics: Homecoming king vs. the science nerd. Just get better with time, don't they?

John: Listen, Mark is...

Sam: Soon to be irrelevant. He's in the third year of the best four years of his life.

[opens John's locker for him, which John has been struggling to do, then walks away]

Sam: [after Sarah watches him kill a Mogadorian in cold blood] I play a lot of Xbox.

John: You have no idea of what's I'm capable of.

John: [trying to convince Henri to allow him to keep a dog] Come on! Another pair of eyes and ears wathing the house? I'm going to need somebody to talk to.
